Memories and Memorabilia
The visits of Mr Clive Jones to Aberdare Boys’ Comprehensive School,
to give a short course on Innovative Thinking, 1983
from Maldwyn Jones, ABGS/ABCS 1976–83
Picture caption reads as follows:“Mr Clive Jones talks to pupils
Mark Lawrence, Maldwyn Jones, Jonathan Evans,
Paul Figgins, Russell McDonald, David Evans and Michael Davies, watched by
Mr. Noel Thomas and Mr. Ray Williams.
Steven Davies and Martin Hill were not in the picture, as they were taking
exams at the time.”
Mr. Clive Jones was based in Abernant but ran a programme in
Cardiff University on “Innovative Thinking”. He wanted to give something
back to the community, so he volunteered to run a weekly course for lower sixth form
students at Aberdare, and possibly at Mountain Ash Comprehensive School as well. Steven
Davies and Martin Hill are mentioned in the caption because they were members of the
course too, but could not be there for the photograph.
